Book review: The Angel's Game by Carlos Ruiz Zafón

The Angel's Game (The Cemetery of Forgotten Books, #2)The Angel's Game by Carlos Ruiz Zafón
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This gothic tale reminded me at times of Dracula and The Picture of Dorian Gray. It was a well written story, but perhaps a little too long and convoluted.
I'm also not sure why it is considered book 2 in the 'Cemetery of Forgotten Books' series other than the publisher trying to make money from its publication, because apart from two minor references to that Cemetery, there really is no major connection here to The Shadow of the Wind, and it is not a continuation of that story. It is much more of a "companion" book.
